Jerky Marinade (for 4-5 lbs. jerky meat)* Soy Sauce 10 oz. L&P Worcestershire Sauce 10 oz. Hunt's Catsup 2.5 oz. Red Wine Vinegar 2 oz. (optional) Liquid Smoke 2 oz. (optional) Tellicherry Black Pepper (fine)*** 1 Tb. Garlic Powder 1/2 Tb. Onion Salt 1/2 Tb. Kosher (or Sea) Salt 2 tsp. MSG 1 Tb. (optional) Ground Red Pepper 1 tsp.** Heat this until the lumps are gone, then let cool. Put meat in a 1 gallon sealed plastic bag (Zip-Loc), add the marinade, mix well, remove the air, and refrigerate overnight (12-18 hrs.) Drain and dehydrate (at 120-150 degrees) 10-12 hrs. Divide into 4 pint-size plastic bags, and freeze until used. *In the absence of Venison, Elk, or other game meat, I buy an "Eye of Round" (beef) roast, 3-4 lbs, and ask the butcher to cut it in two, across the middle, then slice (at 3/8 in.) one half "across the grain", and the other half "with the grain". Then, at home, I slice the pieces "longwise" in 2 inch widths. ** This will be mildly hot for a ChileHead. Use cayenne, kung-pao, serrano, etc., or a mixture. For "TenderTongues", omit the red pepper. *** or any good, fresh black pepper. Tom F. Bryant
